Probably the most fun James and I had during our 10 day trip to Xi'an was cycling along the Xi'an City Wall, which stands at 13.7km in length. The cost of hiring a bike is 20 dollars per 100 minutes. We were at the wall for nearly 3 hours: we cycled, we took pictures, we snacked. Overall, it was a lot of fun!
Entrance to the City Wall.
The stairs lead up to the City Wall. The wall stands at 12 meters high
The width of the City Wall measures between 12-14 meters. Since we were there in the winter, there were few tourists.
The wall is very easy to cycle on. The cyclist in red is James.
Views from the top of the wall:
Xian Railway Station.
South Street. At the end of the street is the Bell Tower.
Looking down to the South Gate from above. South Gate is the most magnificent and beautifully decorated of the four gates on the city wall.
